Sounds prakticable, but may take 1-2 days.
Comment 4 Dieter Nützel 2018-09-29 02:44:41 UTC
I can second that for RX580 (Polaris20)

It raised to 60 W 'idle' (from ~31/32 W with 4.18.9)

bisect? - Not so fast 'cause I use openSUSE Tumbleweed 'Kernel:stable' when 'amd-staging-drm-next' do NOT work for me --- and it do NOT work for me since 21/22 August.... but that come with another ticket.

RX560 is Polaris11, so Bug may be ported from Polaris20
Comment 7 qbl 2018-09-30 14:07:38 UTC
For now i have resolved this problem by simply removing patch for 4.18.11

git diff 93b100ddda3be284be160e9ccba28c7f8f21ab73^1..93b100ddda3be284be160e9ccba28c7f8f21ab73
and patch -R -p1

or without "-R":

git diff 93b100ddda3be284be160e9ccba28c7f8f21ab73..93b100ddda3be284be160e9ccba28c7f8f21ab73^1

Maybe the specs for Vega and Polaris just differ at this point?
Comment 8 qbl 2018-10-04 17:56:53 UTC
4.18.12
Bug still present, removing 93b100ddda3be284be160e9ccba28c7f8f21ab73 solves this problem for now.
Comment 9 Alex Deucher 2018-10-04 20:21:41 UTC
I don't think this is a bug.  The problem is, prior to that patch, the display component was requesting minimum clocks that were 10x too low.  This saved power, but led to display problems on some systems because the clocks were too low to sustain the display requirements.

Sorry Alex,
what?

_All_ was fine _before_ this commit for ages with stable upstream and all 'amd-staging-drm-next'.

Now, I get ~60 W raised from ~30 W with 1920x1080 (even dual display was good before).
Comment 11 Alex Deucher 2018-10-05 02:37:12 UTC
Can you attach the output of `cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/amdgpu_pm_info` before and after the patch?
Comment 12 Dieter Nützel 2018-10-05 03:04:04 UTC
openSUSE Tumbleweed Kernel:stable 4.18.12-2.ga880bd8-default

After the patch.
(For 'before' I have to reboot to broken 'amd-staging-drm-next')

Comment 17 grmat 2018-10-05 11:52:39 UTC
I can confirm the issue with Polaris10. Power consumption is roughly 30 Watts higher in idle compared to what it used to be and compared to Windows. DPM are stuck in highest power modes for both s and m.

The reporter has already bisected so I haven't. If you still need more info, please ping.

so
 - 93b100ddd... fools DC
 + 93b100ddd... fools PM

from my point of view scaling clock values just happens at the wrong place.
So we may have to find different points in code from where smuX_get_XXX gets called by PM _or_ DC, may be in Firmware.
Comment 19 Michel Dänzer 2018-10-05 14:44:38 UTC
People on the Phoronix forum mentioned that this doesn't seem to happen with 4.19-rc kernels. If people here can confirm that, maybe there are other corresponding changes that need to be backported as well.

Comment 21 Thomas Lange 2018-10-06 10:43:21 UTC
I can confirm that only 4.18.x (x > 9) is affected. 4.19-rc6 reports the same clock and power values as with 4.18.9. At least that's the case for my RX 560.

Author of 93b100ddda3be284be160e9ccba28c7f8f21ab73 simply forgot to remove scaling values for powerplay.
Have a look at 23ec3d1479fd79658cd52c47618d8ddd2f32550b where the same scaling applied to vega.
You may have to patch drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm_services.c
too.
Have a look at needed_patch.txt

drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm_services.c (v4.18.12)
There is a lot of work to do:

      230         for (i = 0; i < dc_clks->num_levels; i++) {
      231                 DRM_INFO("DM_PPLIB:\t %d\n", pp_clks->clock[i]);
      232                 /* translate 10kHz to kHz */
      233                 dc_clks->clocks_in_khz[i] = pp_clks->clock[i] * 10;
      234         }

      257         for (i = 0; i < clk_level_info->num_levels; i++) {
      258                 DRM_DEBUG("DM_PPLIB:\t %d in 10kHz\n", pp_clks->data[i].clocks_in_khz);
      259                 /* translate 10kHz to kHz */
      260                 clk_level_info->data[i].clocks_in_khz
                            = pp_clks->data[i].clocks_in_khz * 10;
      261                 clk_level_info->data[i].latency_in_us
                            = pp_clks->data[i].latency_in_us;
      262         }

and maybe

      306         /* Translate 10 kHz to kHz. */
      307         validation_clks.engine_max_clock *= 10;

https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/9/15/172
It should be reverted.

So "[...]the display component was requesting minimum clocks[...]" isn´t an issue with Polaris?
Is there any QA left?
Avoiding unusual units is a good idea generally, but it should happen very early in development.

It was a fix for fallout from an interface refactor we did in 4.19 that mixed up the units between display and power.  We did not intend to have the patch applied to 4.18 and we did not flag the patch for 4.18, it was flagged for 4.18 by someone else outside of AMD.
